Burglars beware. There is a house not far from London that's waiting for burglars.
Force entry through one of the bulletproof doors or windows, and the client will trigger hidden shotguns loaded with non-lethal ammo. If somehow customers are still standing, the owner can retreat to a hidden, fortified room where he can flood the rest of the house with tear gas.
Other security features include biometric scanners and trap doors. The fortress cost its owner (a prosperous hedge fund manager whom we have agreed not to name) $10 million to build. Nevertheless, it highlights how concerned the ultra-wealthy are about their safety and how much they are willing to pay to protect themselves.
In Pictures: How To Keep A Billionaire Safe
Russ Alan Prince, president of the private wealth-research firm Prince & Associates, recently surveyed a sample of the wealthy on the topic. Over 98% of them with a net worth of over $25 million paid for security services in the last few years. Over nine-tenths of that group believe that their wealth makes them a particular target.
Paranoid? Maybe not. The hedge fund manager mentioned above was once kidnapped during a trip overseas. Sears chairman and billionaire Eddie Lampert was famously abducted in 2003. Successful banker Ernest Rady was bound and shot with a stun gun during a robbery at his home last year.
More recently, a camouflaged man tried to break into the home of Warren Buffett. He was fought off by an alert guard, a standard security measure of the affluent. It is an expensive one, too. Experienced professionals, usually drawn from law enforcement and the military, can cost $400 per hour.
The hefty pay buys experience and plenty of loyalty. Billionaire Henry Nicholas hired a former Navy SEAL to guard his children. Earlier this week, the bodyguard was thrown in jail for refusing to cooperate with an investigation into Nicholas' former company, "SEALs do not snitch," explained the jailed man's lawyer.
Also loyal are the guard dogs. These are not mutts from the classifieds, in any case. These are specially trained German Shepards that can run up to $55,000 each. The valuable canines receive years of intensive training to greet their owners with a wagging tail but enemies with a vicious bite. (See "Niiiiice Doggie.")
The norm is alarm systems, cameras at every entrance, and safe rooms where the rich can take refuge behind steel doors. Some of the more expensive setups cost more than $1 million. (See "Platinum Protection.") Just in case the worst happens, there is kidnapping and ransom insurance. Annual premiums for particularly high-risk individuals can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Then there are the Taser-armed robots. Mitch Gitter of Defender Security Services, a London security firm, says he has recently outfitted houses of a couple of well-to-do clients with these high-tech defenders. The robots, which cost $15,000 each, automatically track down an intruder and incapacitate him or her
